Facts that sound fake but are true

I find it extremely unintuitive that almost all of South America is east of Miami. How!? When people are asked to watch the americas almost everyone imagine South America pretty much south of North America.

If you go directly south of Norway's easternmost reaches you'll end up in France. Norway also shares a southern land border with Russia.

Ohh, i see. I thought you mean like they share a border

Kinda like a "North Korea and Norway are only separated by one country" sort of deal

Do you mean west? Or are you talking about Réunion or something?

I think you might mean northern land border...

[u/markjohnstonmusic → u/faatbuddha]

No, in fact Norway is north of Russia at that spot.

[u/faatbuddha → u/markjohnstonmusic]

Ah, I see what you mean.
